They are all beautiful Bernhard, but that Barometer is a work of art! Well done- and when are you setting up shop so we can exploit your skills to make our models as detailed as yours!? %)

Very nice, I like the way you "camouflaged" the servos.

Hi Bernhard....you don't appear to use any automatic boiler level controll for refilling via the pump...do you just steam  for ten minutes....check the level....& then pump for a certain time.....then with experience just repeat the exercise without checking?

I am coming to the conclusion that a servo driven pump similar to the types you use is the simplest solution to maintaining boiler water level  :-))

Whenever convenient could you please list the various WEB sites where you source your servo driven pumps........the only site I could find was the French  jpb-vapour.wifeo.com

Your comments are always appreciated........Derek

Really beautifully made Bernhard.  All the little accessories round the boat really set it off and give it a look or realism.
